Crypto Shock Senate Blocks CBDC Until 2030 BlackRock Launches Staked Ethereum ETF Tether Injects $1B USDT
Breaking crypto news today brings a wave of market-moving developments that could shape the future of digital assets. The U.S. Senate has voted 89-10 to block the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency until 2030, delivering a major regulatory win for private stablecoins and decentralized finance.
At the same time, BlackRock has launched a new staked Ethereum ETF, ETHB, allowing investors to gain Ethereum exposure while earning staking rewards. This move signals growing institutional confidence in Ethereum’s yield-generating ecosystem and helped push ETH higher as markets reacted.
Meanwhile, Tether minted $1 billion USDT, injecting fresh liquidity into the crypto market and contributing to a rapid $50 billion surge in total market capitalization within hours. Short sellers were caught off guard as over $96 million in crypto shorts were liquidated in just one hour.
Other major developments include:
• The CFTC preparing guidance that may allow exchanges to self-certify blockchain-based prediction markets
• Kraken gaining direct access to Federal Reserve payment rails
• A major CoW Swap trade experiencing extreme slippage before Aave’s founder stepped in to refund fees
These events highlight the accelerating intersection of institutional finance, regulation, and decentralized technology.
